The US rapper says there's absolutely no truth to claims he hooked up with the Bajan beauty during their current world tour, on which the Brooklyn star is supporting Rihanna at the North American gigs.

"Yeah I expected them to say that me and Rihanna were sleeping around," Rocky told MTV News this week. "We're just cool."

"I'm just cool with her, I don't even look at her like that. She's sexy, but I'm good," the rapper explained, referring to the fact that he is already in a relationship.

"That's really a friend, she supports me, she's bringing me out [and] she ain't have to do that," he added. "I got nothing but love for RiRi, that's the homey right there."

The romance rumours escalated when Rocky grabbed Rihanna's bum during their performance at the MTV Video Music Awards last year.

The Brooklyn-born rapper shocked the audience, which included Rihanna's on/off love Chris Brown, when he groped the singer's derriere while they were performing the remix of her single 'Birthday Cake.'

Reports that the pair were dating spiraled after A$AP's raunchy antics but the rapper said at the time that the grabbing wasn't planned and just happened in the spur of the moment. "I didn't mean for the ass grab to be the thing. I don't fiend for fake publicity sh*t. I'm just a trill ni**a," he insisted to Complex magazine last year.
